L 'Aiidak Mabruk to you all.

What a great time to experience the warm, friendly and generous nature of the Kerkennians!

L'Aiid Kebir is one of the bigest celebrations in the Muslim World (equivalent to Christmas in England!) and this is when each family is obliged by religion to sacrifice a sheep.

In the weeks leading up to L'Aiid Kebir, sheep will arrive at most houses, where they will stay until the day of the sacrifice.

This is an occassion where family, friends and neighours will cook and share the meat, and welcome everybody to join in the celebration.

A small gift given to the locals, is much appreciated.

Heart felt thanks to all my friends and neighbours on Kerkennah, for their generous hospitality, and for the warm welcome I have had, not just at L'Aiid , but throughout the year.

Definately a great time to visit the Island!

    I have been immensely fortunate to live in Tunisia for the past 7 Years.
    I live on the stunningly, beautiful,unspoilt Islands of Kerkennah and absolutely love it here! The people are fantastic, the weather is great,the sea is stunning and we have have around 1 million spontaneously seeded palm trees. Sunrises are spectacular and sunsets here are magnificent.
    I want to share the Islands with you and would love to hear from you.
    Thank You for visiting my website.
